We, at VBS, have always tried to ensure that we maintain a positive and congenial campus environment that will make every new student to the campus feel comfortable, and feel safe and stay protected from ragging. Ragging is a punishable offence as per the AICTE Notification File No.37-3 / Legal / AICTE/2009, Dated – 1.7.2009 and Maharashtra Prohibition of Ragging Act, 1999.

There is an Anti-Ragging Committee at VBS. The committee comprises teachers and student volunteers. All cases of ragging are to be referred to this committee. We have adopted a ’ZERO-TOLERANCE POLICY’ towards such criminal acts. Hence, prompt disciplinary action is the principle of the committee against any student who indulges in ragging.

Any student found guilty of ragging is strictly dealt with and is liable for any of the following punishments, depending upon the magnitude of the offence:

• Suspension from classes

• Expulsion from the campus

• A public apology, followed by a fine

• Debarring from attending any test/placement activities/examination

• Withholding of the results

These actions, we believe, are adequate insurance and protection against any misadventures by any of the students.

As per the notification of All India Council for Technical Education, New Delhi, the following are the members of the Anti-Ragging Committee for the Academic year 2023-24.

The CRs of Senior and Junior Classes are the student representatives in Anti-Ragging Committee.
